Roar of the Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 776

Quincy’s nonchalant response made James’ embarrassment even more pronounced.

“U-Um, could you get out of the bathroom first? I need to get dressed.”

“Okay,” Quincy replied while her eyes peered at the bathtub as if she was trying to check something.

After a glance, she turned and left the bathroom.

James sighed in relief.

Then, he got out of the bath and quickly got dressed.

After putting on his clothes, he walked out.

Quincy had already set the table for them.

When he sat next to her, she passed him a set of utensils.

James took them and started eating.

Halfway through the meal, James' phone rang.

He took it out and saw an unfamiliar number. After hesitating for a while, he denied the call.

“Who was it? Why didn’t you answer it?”

James simply put his phone back down and picked his utensils up again. “I didn’t recognize the number. It must have been one of those telemarketers.”

Shortly after turning down the call, his phone rang again.

It was the same number.

This time, James answered it.

A shrill voice screamed at him from the other end of the phone, “James, where are you?! Get over here! Now!”

It was a familiar voice. Its owner was none other than Thea’s mother, Gladys.

James furrowed his brow and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“You have the gall to ask me?! I’m warning you. If anything happens to my daughter, I’ll never forgive you! Thea is trying to commit suicide because of you!”

“What?!” James' expression immediately changed.

“What happened?” He pressed her for more information.

“She’s trying to jump off a building.”

James replied immediately, “I-I’ll rush over right now.”

Seeing his alarmed expression, Quincy could not help but ask, “What’s the matter? What happened?”

James turned to her helplessly. “It’s Thea’s mother. She said that Thea is trying to jump off a building.”

“D-Don’t come near me!”

Thea looked at her family inside the ward and threatened as she cried hysterically, “Come any closer, and I’ll jump! James doesn’t want me! He doesn’t want me anymore!”

Her tears poured down her face.

Thea’s family was worried that she would be overwhelmed by her emotions and jump off, so they refrained from approaching her.

Gladys instructed everyone, “Everyone! Quick, step back.”:

Everyone quickly backed away.

Quincy drove over to the hospital like a bat out of hell.

Throughout the whole car ride, James did not utter a single word.

He stayed away from Thea because he did not want her to get hurt again.

As long as he stayed with her, the Emperor would surely exploit his weakness over and over.

Soon, his battle with the political fractions was going to be intense.

He wanted to give off the appearance of a man who had no weaknesses, so his opponents would not have any ammunition against him.

Never did he expect Thea to commit suicide because of his consideration to her safety.
